                  {
  "isWater": true,
  "feature": "LAKE",
  "lat": 46.67,
  "lon": 103.3,
  "reqMs": 50
}

isWater: boolean. Returns true when feature is not LAND
feature: string. Returns the type of terrain at that point. One of the following: LAND, OCEAN, LAKE, RIVER, UNKNOWN. We may return UNKNOWN in the middle of oceans or if the coordinates you provided are invalid
lat: float. Returns the latitude you provided, for your convenience
lon: float. Returns the longitude you provided, for your convenience
reqMs: integer. The number of milliseconds it took our server to process your request. Most probably not relevant to you

Our dataset is ASTWBD v001 (ASTER Global Water Body Data Base), provided by the U.S./Japan ASTER Science Team.

It contains data acquired between March 1, 2000, and November 30, 2013

The dataset's pixel size is 30 meters, therefore the results might be incorrect in shores up to that distance (Ex: classifying a beach as OCEAN)
